On Friday night Big Boi took to Twitter to make it official:

After over a year of wrangling over release dates with his label Jive Records, Antwan Patton has found a home with Def Jam and Island Def Jam Chairman/CEO L.A. Reid — the man who gave OutKast their first deal with now-defunct LaFace Records over 15 years ago. That means Big Boi’s long-awaited Sir Lucious Leftfoot: Son of Chico Dusty album — which seemed dangerously close to becoming another Detox — will finally see the light of day.

It’s scheduled for a May 2010 release.
